City Christmas Tree Lighting

December 2, 2016 | I almost didn’t post this one…because it wasn’t what we were hoping it would be. But I brought my real camera and snapped some so-so images, so they are going to go on the blog!

Our city was having it’s first Tree Lighting ceremony at the new community center, so I thought it would be fun to attend with E. I adore Christmas, so any excuse! Well, it was more of a commercial for the city…lots of talking/announcements. The kids’ eyes were all glazed over and I was just trying to prevent E from pulling down the barricade to the tree. They finally turned them on and it was…meh. But with everyone occupied by Santa talking into the mic, that meant no waiting at the goat-ride! Yes, you read that right…ridiculous. We went inside for some crafts and vendor tables, but jetted out pretty quick. I don’t think this will become a tradition for us…ha!
